I assume it's the disc though
I only have two games PGR3 and Saints Row
PGR works like a charm
Saints Row however I put it in and it's says "Reading" for like 10 minutes and if it does come up it says "Please insert disc into Xbox 360"
Anyone get this or know how to fix it. It's doing it with a couple other games but you can play it here and there

All my games were working fine last night does this live effect it?

Do you have the original 360 (launch day) or one of the newer ones?

Do you have the Intercooler?

Is your system vertical or hortizontal?

Is your Saints Row heat damaged? (Check the shiny side. If you see "blobs" of area that are differently colored, usually darker when compared to a normal disk, it may have been heat damaged. That darker area shows that the foil has detached from the disk.

I have one of the newer ones
I have no clue what an intercooler is but I think I have one because my Xbox is usually warm but not hot.
And my box is laying down.

I actaully returned the game EB was pretty good about it even though it was pass the return date. I got a new copy. It seems to work but I'm paranoid now.

I looked at the back of the disc and there was a blob thing, sortof a darker grey in the center of the disc I don't remember before.

Many disks get that near the center and still work fine (like half of my disks, lol @ 36 hours of continous play).

The Intercooler is the little box you clip onto the back of your 360 that has 3 little fans in it. If you have the old version of it, the one that has a switch on it, it may be half or more of the problem. Make sure you have the new version, the one without the switch, that comes in a cardboard box.

What's funny is that I move my console all the time when I'm moving wires and stuff (I have to lean over it to reach any wires) and I've never had that problem. XD

Duh and I know. neutral

I can't reach anything so long as it's vertical. XD

Of course, I move it damn slow. I'm not a tard that just spins the system. (I used to play with my CD players alot. Spinning them etc. Taking apart ones that didn't read disks anymore was fun. I'd reattach the power supply to the spinner and put on like an AOL cd or something, then twist the spinner. It was fun, because I could actually feel the resistance. It took some, not much, but some, muscle to get it turning then to stop it too.)

*coughs* Blabbing on again. -.-
